Month: July 2015

We had a great turn-out for ylab’s kick-off event. We’re guessing that between 75 and 100 people came out. The volunteers put a lot of work into it, and we want to thank everyone who attended for making it such a success. We have many new volunteers, and, of course, we’re always looking for more – email us at info(at)ylab(dot)ca.

We announced our first five events, and they’ll be showing up soon on the website. We’ll post them in a separate entry. The dates and times we announced are confirmed. We just need to cover the final details.

Special mentions go out to:

Canada Robotix for hosting the event – and Jack for his drive to make it happen.

Makers Paul and Sarah showed off their pick-and-placer prototype project completed in one and a half months. The pick-and-place arm picks up surface-mount components and places them in their spot on the circuit board:

The best kind of networking – meet new friends, learn something new, and play!
